After the Moueix family acquired Ch. Certan-Giraud in 1999, they sold on those sections of the vineyard which were located downhill, away from the choicest Pomerol plateau. They then re-named the improved estate Ch. Hosanna. The wine-making team lost no time in introducing essential changes to vineyard and cellar, which has brought about the birth of a new star in Pomerol. There are three plots of old Cabernet Franc vines here, representing 25% of the production in 2017, the balance being Pomerol’s classic grape, Merlot. Its vineyard is close to, or surrounded by, illustrious neighbours: Vieux Ch. Certan, Certan de May, Lafleur and La Fleur-Pétrus.
Ch. Hosanna 2017 has rich, purple-garnet colour of medium depth, with aromas which leap from the glass, showing red and black fruits, very fresh and fine. Palate shows outstanding concentration of fruit, with balanced structure, creamy texture and captivating length. It again exhibits unmatchable elegance, with all elements merged together, and a peacock’s tail of flavours on the smooth, long finish (for drinking 2022-2032+).

The family firm of Etablissements Jean-Pierre Moueix own many of the finest châteaux on Pomerol’s central plateau as well as Premier Grand Cru Classé Château Bélair-Monange in Saint-Émilion. In addition, they manage the vineyards of several other Right Bank châteaux, helping them to produce wines of outstanding harmony, beauty and elegance. Christian Moueix has been the guiding light of the family’s progress since his first vintage in 1971. His son Edouard is now taking over, aided by a brilliant team in vineyard and cellar. Our history with the Moueix family goes back to 1970, when Nick Clark and Anthony Hanson MW first started our business with them. We have been shipping from them uninterruptedly since then.
Etablissements Jean-Pierre Moueix belongs to classical school of wine making. Their aim is to produce wines which are fully ripe, yet lively, with all elements subtly integrated and with great length of flavour. These wines have the ability to gain smoothness, complexity and silkiness as they mature.
